What type of muscle tissue has neuromuscular junctions?
skeletal muscle
What are neuromuscular blocking agents?
Neuromuscular blocking agents are a class of drugs primarily indicated for use as an adjunct to anesthesia. Neuromuscular blocking drugs relax skeletal muscles and induce paralysis.
What does curare act by in the neuromuscular junction?
Curare is a skeletal muscle relaxant it acts as a neuromuscular blocking agent. It reduces shivering. But, can be considered quite lethal.
What is the narrow space that separates the motor neuron and the skeletal muscle fiber in a neuromuscular junction called?
Neuromuscular junction or neuromuscular synapse
What location does a neuron transfer an impulse to another cell?
It depends on what the next structure is. If it is another neurone, then it is a synapse. If it is skeletal muscle, then the it is a neuromuscular junction. If it is any other type of muscle, then it is a myoneural junction.
What is a chronic progressive neuromuscular disorder that causes severe skeletal muscle weakness?
myasthenia gravis
What type of muscle tissue has neuromuscular junctions?
skeletal muscle

Curare is a skeletal muscle relaxant it acts as a neuromuscular blocking agent. It reduces shivering. But, can be considered quite lethal.
Action potentials are conducted into a skeletal muscle fiber by?
C. neuromuscular junctions
Each skeletal muscle fiber is controlled by a motor neuron at a single?
neuromuscular junction
Skeletal muscle fiber contraction begins when?
Acetylcholine is released into the neuromuscular junction by the axon terminal
The action potential is conducted into a skeletal muscle fiber by?
neuromuscular junctions Action potentials conduct down T tubules into skeletal muscles
What is the narrow space that separates the motor neuron and the skeletal muscle fiber in a neuromuscular junction called?
Neuromuscular junction or neuromuscular synapse
Which of these junctions represents the connection between the tip of a neuron and a skeletal muscle cell from which Acetylcholine diffuses?
Neuromuscular
Is bone tumor bone cyst hypophosphatasia osteomalacia haematopoiesis or osteoporosis a skeletal disorder?
Hypophosphatasia is a metabolic disorder that can cause skeletal deformities.
Which disorder has to do with women and the skeletal system?
osteoporosis
